Lately, I have been feeling depressed. I have a 17 month old and am 28 weeks pregnant with baby #2.
My husband is 1 week away from finishing his masters and is very busy with work - I stay at home. I feel like all of the time he has away from work and school (which is very little) is very rarely offered to me. We were supposed to go out to dinner tonight with a friend, but because our son was sleepy, I let them go and offered to stay home - even though I always stay home and hardly get out. I feel like after chasing our toddler all day I need a backrub or like I just need to get out. But, it always comes down to his needs - he needs sex, so no backrub, or he has been working all day so he gets to go out.
I know he is well-intentioned, but he is totally blind to the fact that it is always about his needs. I just want him to sacrifice something every now and then. Everytime I try to bring it up, he gets overwhelmed and it turns back around to HIS NEEDS.
What do I do?
